Welcome back everybody to another episode of the Weekly Planet
Where we talk movies and comics and TV shows.
My name is James, also known as Mr. Sunday.
With me as always is my co-host Nick Mason.
Whoop, there it is.
It's podcast time.
It's podcast time.
Which is what I said before the show.
And I said, why don't you open with that?
And you said no.
Because it seems disingenuous.
Well, I say it felt very genuine.
Whoop, there it is.
It's podcast time.
Are we delirious from the cold? Is that what's happening here? It's podcast time. Are we delirious
from the cold?
Is that what's happening here?
And it's pretty late.
We're both wearing
puffy jackets.
And you've come from work
and I've been,
I just,
my computer crashed this week.
I was telling you about it
and I've been struggling
to get this video out
on an old computer.
With cold keys
you were telling me.
Yeah.
These keys are so cold.
This one that I'm using
has cold keys.
The one inside is fine.
Okay, right.
The one inside has hot keys.
Yeah, it's got the hottest keys.
Hidden keys situation.
Yeah, right.
But this one is like, I think they're metal or something.
They're still so cold.
Anyway, hopefully they'll warm up during the show.
Yeah.
Because I'd hate to be using cold keys for an hour and a half.
Absolutely.
Like a savage.
Oh, yuck.
It's what they did back in the Victorian era.
You threw your toilet waste out the window
and you used a laptop with cold keys.
I'd rather be dead from the plague.
Absolutely.
Speaking of being dead.
Oh, yes.
The world might be ending at some point.
That's the idea, isn't it?
Is that the idea?
It's in the zeitgeist.
Yeah, sure, it's in the zeitgeist.
Yeah, that's the plan.
Yeah.
But the thing is, we've got a fun... Fingers crossed. Yeah cross yeah fingers crossed we've got a fundraiser coming up to make a small effort to hopefully
end like not into to lend a tiny world to put it up to put a tiny fraction of support towards
that not happening uh what we're doing mentioned this last week but on the 21st of june uh now the
tickets are on sale for our live show that we're doing, which also is linked to a screening of the movie 2040 by Damon Gamow.
He's an Australian filmmaker and actor.
He also did the Sugar film from a few years ago, which is a documentary about sugars and everything, and you're all dying.
Now, 2040 is the 28th sequel to the movie 2012, right?
That's correct, yes.
Also the climate change movie.
Have you seen all the ones in the middle of that?
I figured I'd skip them.
It's mostly people screaming at icebergs and whatever because they collapse.
It's pretty good.
Being chased by wind.
Yeah, that's right.
I've never seen that movie.
No.
But it is people being chased by wind, isn't it?
It's literally people being chased down the street by climate coming at them,
like buildings freezing as they run away from it.
Very cool.
Yeah, so it's going to be a live show and a screening,
and we're not going to be alone on that live show.
Well, not alone.
There'll be two of us, but also...
There'll be an audience.
That's right.
Hopefully there'll be an audience.
Will Anderson and Charlie Clawson,
who are both guested on this show,
they're from TOEFOP and various other projects,
including stand-up and radio and comedy and acting
and theatre and sport and...
Abs.
And abs.
Yes, that's right.
And so they're going to be joining us as well.
So the idea is live show, maybe a toilet break, movie screening, and then...
Another toilet break.
A toilet break, if you need it.
And then afterwards, grab a beer at Rivoli Cinema.
And then a toilet break before you go home. Yes, that's right. Or go home and then enjoy a toilet break. A toilet break if you need it. And then afterwards grab a beer at Rivoli Cinema. And then a toilet break before you go home.
Yes, that's right.
Or go home and then enjoy a toilet break.
Depending how far.
Which lasts as long as you want.
That's true.
Depending on if you have housemates or anything like that.
Or how many toilets you have in your house.
Yeah, yeah.
It's pretty good, isn't it?
It's good, yeah.
Yeah.
So tickets are only $30.
A large chunk of that, I don't think we're making any money off it.
Maybe we are.
But before I say we're not, we're making very little because it's actually going to be $29 a ticket.
That's right.
I don't think actually we're doing any because the proceeds for this year's charity campaign,
which is also be kicking off soon, is going towards basically the idea is to farm seaweed.
And this seaweed farm is stretching from here to the
us and the idea is and i'm going to explain this very badly but it helps uh all the seaweed holds
hands that's right yes uh it basically helps uh the co2 emissions and cuts down there because
seaweed can grow something like half a meter a day or certain types so it's like the quickest
way to kind of combat this problem you You can use it to feed animals.
It's better than grain and things like that.
So the idea of this 2040 movie and this campaign is...
Put that on your bloody toast, millennials.
Exactly.
Someone's avocado toast.
Put some bloody seaweed on your toast.
The idea is by 2040, the movie's kind of optimistic
about how all the things are already...
The technology is here to kind of have the world recover
and have people being self-sustainable
and all those kinds of things.
The technology is here, it's just about implementing it.
So the movie's not like,
you're going to die and don't bother.
It's like, hey, maybe we can do something.
But that's what the tagline is.
It's true.
But that just gets you into the theatre
and then you realise it's a bit of a twist.
So please come down.
At the moment, there's 100 seats,
depending on how they sell.
I don't know what ticket sales are up to, but we might move into a bigger theater.
Or a smaller theater.
That's right.
It depends.
If sales are embarrassingly slow.
That's 21st of July.
It's in the afternoon.
I think maybe it starts at 2.
I can't remember.
It's 20 below.
$30.
If you're in Melbourne or you can get to Melbourne, please come down.
We'd love to see you there.
Come and bloody say hi afterwards or during.
That's fine.
Yell out during any point of it except for the toilet breaks.
Do not yell at us during our precious, precious toilet breaks.
I plan on taking a 42-minute toilet break during the movie,
and I want you to leave me alone, okay?
So this is also the ad for the episode.
Oh, yeah, cool.
This is the only ad. so there you go i know
i banged on about the bloody environment like one of those bloody new age bloody soy milk drink and
bloody soy boys that's my real soy boy absolutely yeah but uh i think it's important and a good
cause also every dollar that we raise for this is also going to be matched by some foundation i
can't remember what so if we raise like 40 000 or 50 000 whatever we got last year they'll match
that which is great
that's seaweed for everybody
can you imagine
oh my god
I'm going to put so much
seaweed on my toast
good excellent
anyway enough of this
environment shit
let's talk about
comic book movies
yes
yes please
Amy Pascal
has talked about
Tom Hardy
and how he will
haven't we all
talked about Tom Hardy
yeah we have
but no her in particular.
Oh, okay, right.
She wouldn't stop.
Because he's going to be returning for the Venom sequel.
I think because he has to.
Venom.
That's right, Venom.
And also she commented on the potential of the Tom Hardy, Tom Holland
uniting on all fronts for a Spider-Man Venom movie.
Yeah.
She says, everyone would love to see that.
You never know someday.
James made a facial expression
indicating scepticism. That's right.
You never know, someday it might happen.
We have big plans for Tom Holland to be part of everything,
every movie we ever do. He needs
to be in every movie that I ever work on.
He needs to. So there you go.
He's uncharted, isn't he? That sounds like a woman
snapping. That sounds
like just somebody in an executive position
finally snapping.
The pressure's got to them.
Yeah.
And just constant questions about Tom Holland.
She's like, Tom Holland will be in everything.
He's everything I ever do.
He's in my dreams.
He won't leave me alone.
I see him in my toast.
The toast comes up.
It's got Tom Holland's face burned into it.
Both sides.
Is Tom Holland my new Jesus? I think he might be. All hail Tom Holland. All toast comes up. It's got Tom Holland's face burned into it. Both sides. Is Tom Holland my new Jesus?
I think he might be.
All hail Tom Holland.
All hail Tom Holland.
So Kevin Feige pretty much said the same thing.
It's like, yeah, Sony are pretty much planning to do that.
And they're allowed to.
Yeah.
Because they own Spider-Man and they own Venom.
But do they own Tom Holland as an actor?
Well, they own him for the Uncharted movie.
They got him in that.
Yeah, right.
So he's probably in Jumanji. He'll probably make a cameo
probably in Jumanji 2
or Jumanji 3, Jumanji 2 Furious.
So, yeah.
The third one's called Thruppin's Jumanji.
What do you think
about that? It's set in that Victorian era where
people throw their old video games out with
the toilet water at the window. Oh, then they use their cold
keyboards to play Fortnite.
But instead of Fortnite, it's just people punching each other
in their wooden teeth.
It's just surviving a Fortnite two weeks
without dying of something horrible.
That's the game Fortnite in the Victorian era.
There you go.
I'd rather see Tom Holland and Tom Hardy in a movie
where they aren't Spider-Man and Venom.
What about movies where they're both super spies and they're both
in love with Reese Witherspoon?
Yes, that's right. Yes, absolutely.
What do you think? Yeah, it sounds really good. Cool.
It should be called, This Means
War 2, Chris Pine's
Character Died. That's what it
should be called. So we got
Tom Holland, he's a new guy. He's his
son, maybe. Yeah. That's probably the
twist. Yeah, there we go, yes.
So, yeah, look, if it was a better Venom movie,
I'd be more excited for this.
For sure, yeah.
But apparently the reactions to Spider-Man is Gone to Europe
is very good.
And people are like,
there's some stuff in here that'll blow your mind
in the post-credits.
You'll look at it and you'll never be the same.
Whoa.
So, anyway, if it leaks leaks don't tell us we don't
want to know absolutely not uh please stop sending us spoilers for things like things we don't we
don't want them people do it every now and then some people sent us we saw afterwards that captain
america wields the hammer in endgame oh yeah that's right we don't want that i want it ahead
of time we do not want that ahead of time yeah so do not want that. We don't want it ahead of time. Yeah. So I'm seeing it on Friday, I think.
Oh, bloody darn.
And you're seeing it Monday?
Monday, yeah.
Because it's just out next week.
So how very exciting for everybody.
Very good.
You looking forward to it?
Yeah.
Apparently, it's going to blow my bloody mind with all the things in the post credits.
It's going to change my whole outlook on the universe, apparently.
Evidently.
That's right.
So I've set the bar really high is what's happening there.
Yeah, you should, Mason.
You absolutely should.
And you have.
Sequel news for Halloween.
Remember how Halloween got a sequel that ignored all the other Halloweens?
Yes.
But it was just called Halloween, but it was actually the real Halloween 2,
even though there already was a Halloween 2 called Halloween Season of the Witch
and the actual Halloween sequel was called Halloween 3.
But also there was a reboot where there was a sequel to the movie Halloween
that Rob Zombie directed that was maybe just called Halloween 2.
And did you know there's also a holiday tradition called Halloween?
Halloween 2?
Yeah, Halloween 2.
So the second one was called Halloween 2.
What are we up to, like seven?
Who knows?
We don't really celebrate Halloween here, do we, Mason,
because it's bloody Australia, mate.
We don't.
We celebrate.
We celebrate. We celebrate. What happens is you put out a meat pie
on your bloody front
porch, it slowly rots
that's what happens
the cat eats it
and if you're lucky, Paul Hogan might
scamper up onto your deck and take a bite
that's our Halloween
he flies in from LA
where he lives
he flies in, LA where he lives.
He flies in.
He flies in.
He eats the pie.
And then if you're really lucky, if you keep your window open,
he leans in and he whispers a quick tip to evade taxes.
And then he leaves.
Just don't pay, mate.
Just don't pay.
Don't even bother.
What are they going to do?
I'm in LA.
Yeah, that's right. It doesn't matter.
That's not an offshore shell company.
This is an offshore shell company.
That's right.
So anyway, the new Halloween movie is going to be called Halloween 2,
even though technically in this continuity it's Halloween 3.
And we've already had Halloween 2 several times prior to this.
What do you think of that?
Jamie Lee Curtis is set to return.
It's got a 2020 release date. The last
one was just fine.
It was just fine, yeah.
Was he running? Maybe we'll definitively
find out the next one. Maybe that's what this is,
yeah. Yeah. What's he up to?
He must have those soap
shoes where he can glide down railings and
stuff, and they've got all the wheelies. He's got the little
wheel he can kick out on the back.
He's got heelies. That's what I think is happening little wheel he can kick out on the back. Yeah, he's got wheelies.
That's what I think is happening.
Maybe he just takes some joy in it.
Like, you know, he'll be about to walk slowly down a set of stairs and then the teenager he's chasing, you know,
screams and looks the other way
and then he just hops on the railing,
slides down on his butt.
Yeah.
And he goes, wee.
But you can't hear it because he's got the mask on.
He's got the mask yeah exactly
i'm not super jazzed for this to be honest for halloween too yeah slash three i mean it very
much left it open to the last one because he didn't die it's true and then i think he was
in the credits and he was like you you thought it was over but i'm here yeah is that what he said
it's because i guess the downfall of this sort of thing Is that at this point
There's nothing you can do
Yeah, I mean give him purpose
Or reason
I should say
But I also feel like
We know that from other movies
But this version technically doesn't
It's the sort of thing where
The ending never really feels satisfying
To me because There's no definitive way It's the sort of thing where, like, the ending never really feels satisfying to me
because there's no definitive way to permanently rid yourself of him.
And regardless of what happens to him, they can always find a way to just be like,
no, actually, it was the ambulance driver.
We put his mask on him, so it's a different guy.
He's back again.
Yeah.
Like, you know.
Shoot him in the head.
Shoot him in the head.
Why didn't they shoot him in the head? Remember when they were all just watching him in the fire? Yeah. you know. Shoot him in the head. Shoot him in the head. Why didn't they shoot him in the head?
Remember when they were just watching him in the fire?
Yeah.
I would have shot him in the head.
I would have shot him so many times.
I'm not really a fan of guns.
I'm really not.
But I would have shot that dude like 50 fucking times.
If you got him and he's Michael Myers, a serial killer.
Oh my God, I would never stop shooting him.
Yeah.
Even if he was like, you got me, I'm dead though.
Then no.
I definitely, because that's a trick, Mason.
I would get in the ambulance with him and I'd just shoot him all the way to the morgue.
You're right.
That's what we're doing.
And then you just keep shooting until, you know, your wife called and was like, you coming
home?
And you'd be like, more gaudily, can you hold this and just keep shooting him for a bit?
Just keep shooting him.
And if his body comes, give me a call.
I don't want to be surprised.
I don't want to be surprised if he comes up and he kills you.
Yeah.
And then he comes to my house again.
That's right.
You know what?
I'm going to put you on speaker.
Yes.
So I want to hear you shooting him as I'm having dinner with my family.
Yeah.
Anyway, good.
It's happening.
Maybe they can do some twists and stuff in this one.
Well, I mean, I guess the twist of the last one,
did it seem to suggest that the evil of Michael Myers
somehow ended up in one of the daughters?
Is that what was happening?
What happened there?
I think that might be a different movie.
Oh, no.
Or the same.
I don't know.
No, I think it was that movie.
I feel...
Which daughter?
Weren't they all escaping in the truck at the end?
The granddaughter?
Yes.
I don't know. Did she have a bit of an evil twinkle in the truck at the end? The granddaughter? Yes. I don't know.
Did she have a bit of an evil twinkle in her eye?
Who knows?
All right.
Yes.
Let's say I would have shot her all the way to the morgue as well.
I'd shoot them both just to be sure.
But then am I the Michael Myers, you know?
Is that what happens?
I guess so, yeah.
You start shooting everybody who thinks the Michael Myers, it's you.
Yeah, except now you're Michael Myers with a gun, which is more dangerous.
I don't even need to be running.
Yeah.
Marvel had a big countdown this week, Mason.
Oh, so good.
Which for some reason started at the number four.
Insanity.
We talked about it before the show, and we came to the conclusion is that they meant to start at five and they missed a day.
Yeah, they were like, here's the news, we're going to release it on this day,'s the heart here's the news we're going to release it on this day no matter what the contract says we've got to release it
on this day and the intern was like yeah sure we've got that i'll put five up today yeah and
then it got to like knock off time no he woke up the next morning and he's like oh no yeah and so
they were but that's the thing the only acceptable countdown times to start on are 10 5 and 3 yeah
that's exactly nobody starts on 4.
That's right.
Or 1, because then it's over before you realise it's a countdown.
Unless you're threatening to shoot somebody.
Yeah.
And you're like, once I get to 1, you're dead, mate.
Yeah, that's right.
And then they go, ooh, and you go, 1, bang!
Gotcha!
Yeah, Michael Myers.
But yeah, like, because...
Oh, by the way, people thought it was including me, Spider-Man 4.
Yeah, because Marvel put up a tweet and it was a picture of a 4 in webs.
And people lost their minds because they were like,
okay, well this is the unproduced Sam Raimi Spider-Man 4 movie in comic book form.
And then people were like, is this some sort of Spider-Man Fantastic Four team up
see I didn't think
it was the Sam Raimi
thing initially
until Alex Ross
who did a lot of art
for the Spider-Man movies
he does like the stuff
in the credits
he posted an image
on the same day
of some of his art
from those movies
with the hashtag
Spider-Man 4
yeah right
yeah
so is he working on this
I'm not even sure
that he is
yeah right but I still think that maybe there's a chance that this is he working on this i'm not even sure that he is yeah so but i still think
that maybe there's a chance that this is coming maybe and this isn't it i mean just make it why
wouldn't you yeah anyway sorry go on just knock out just get anybody to knock it out i should
point out we're current we're working on the spider-man trilogy of a caravan of garbage the
first one is this week yeah we're doing the trilogy and it's got me jazzed for like and
they're not perfect but you'd read the adaptation of this right yeah i'd read that yeah sure yeah anyway so what do we do
we have is the script out there or is like the the elements of it is there's some storyboards
there's some concept art all the casting's pretty much confirmed and out there cool yeah nice and
hathaway was going to be black cat but then she ended up being a cat woman different movie yes i
think she's in the movie Cats as well.
Wow.
I don't know, that's true.
Yeah.
So anyway, it turned out to be J.J. Abrams is writing a new Spider-Man comic
with his son, Henry, which is, you know, good for them.
Sure.
But that, what do you, why would you, like, they just got heat for that.
Like, that kid's like 20.
Why does that need a countdown?
It doesn't.
Like, if, look, I could understand that if J.J. Abrams is commonly known for countdown somehow.
Like if every one of his movies had a countdown from four till one.
It's a mystery box.
Yeah, it is a mystery box.
It absolutely is.
If everything from Alias to Lost to Mission Impossible 3 had a countdown from 4 till 1,
and then the big action set piece happened.
I'd be like, well, that actually makes a lot of sense.
But nothing of this needed a countdown.
Just release it on a day.
Agreed.
Unless he was like, well, I demand hype for this,
so we've got to do a 4 till 1 countdown.
Yeah, and I demand a start at 4 because it's the half of the movie,
the number from Super 8, which is 8. People will get it because it's a mystery box. Yeah, for sure. a start at four because it's the half of the movie, the number from Super 8, which is eight.
People will get it because it's a mystery box.
Yeah, for sure.
People will unravel that.
But that happened, if you remember, when they did the first trailer, I think, for Cloverfield.
Yeah.
Some other stuff came out at the same time.
Other was unrelated?
Yeah, there was like this augmented, there was like this online multiplayer game that came, like there was this augmented reality game trailer
for like an online role-playing game or something like that
that came out at the same time,
and there were mysterious videos and clues and a website or whatever.
And people were like, oh, my God, this is all connected.
And a website.
And it turned out it wasn't connected.
It was just some dude's game.
Was it good?
I don't think so.
Yeah, cool.
Maybe it was.
Maybe it's still around.
What was it called? I'll Google it so. Yeah, cool. Good on him. Maybe it was. Maybe it's still around. What was it called? I'll
Google it right now. Anyway, like, good on him.
I mean, that's, you know, that's
probably a good one.
Do we know anything about the plot? Is it a limited series?
I don't believe so. I think it's just called Spider-Man, so it's
not... Terrific. I think it's
not linked to anything currently, or
we don't really know the narrative, so there you go.
Yes. Anyway. There was
a website called Ethan Haas Was Right,
which was a viral marketing campaign to promote a role-playing game
called Alpha Omega, The Beginning and the End.
Cool, man.
The game received publicity online after it was erroneously connected
with the J.J. Abrams film Cloverfield.
The game consists of a series of flash puzzles,
all concerning a giant sphere that changes shape as each one is solved.
A sphere changes shape?
Yeah.
To what?
Behind the sphere,
a city skyline at night is visible.
As one completes the puzzles,
the image progressively changes
to that of a destroyed city.
That's a very happy coincidence
for that game.
Isn't it, right?
Yeah, exactly.
Yeah.
And there was all these
cryptic videos and whatever
and you got sent weird stuff.
Anyway.
Good on that person.
Yeah, I wonder if anybody
played that game. I agree. Yeah. videos and whatever and you got sent weird stuff anyway good on that yeah i wonder if anybody played
that game i agree fx is the veil explores the surprising and fraught relationship between two
women who play a deadly game of truth and lies on the road from istanbul to paris and london
one woman has a secret the other a mission to reveal it before thousands of lives are lost.
FX's The Veil, starring Elizabeth Moss, is now streaming on Disney+.

It's a real one.
Often I just say whatever and just see what happens.
Yeah, that's right.
And oftentimes the incorrect thing we say gets picked up by a real website.
Yeah.
And then when it turns out not to be true, get a lot of tweets about it.
We'll see, won't we?
Because that thing's still coming.
The Matt Smith thing?
Yeah.
The Matt Smith is in... Episode 9 and is the emperor of whatever? Yeah, that's still coming. The Matt Smith thing? Yeah. The Matt Smith is in...

That's what you said.

And then Lucasfilm said, and Disney were like, no, no, no, it isn't.
They took him out of the cast list.
Well, they would do that, wouldn't they?
Yeah.
Because they don't want us to be right.
It's a real J.J. Abrams situation, isn't it?
It's a real Ethan Haas was right situation.
We're Ethan Haas in this situation. We're Ethan Haas
in this situation.
This concerns
The Matrix
and we've got a friend
who's connected
to the film industry
in Australia.
Keanu Reeves.
Keanu Reeves,
that's right.
We shouldn't have
said it was Keanu Reeves
because now people know.
Our friend is Keanu Reeves.
Yes.
But basically
a new Matrix series
will begin filming
in Australia
with the Wachowskis.
They're ramping up
with crew and pre-production
and things like concept art to kick things off.
Oh.
Yeah.
So there's been talk of a new Matrix series for a while.
Yeah.
So this is what's happening.
Apparently, well, this is from this person,
and this might just be speculation that Warner Brothers
weren't really interested in doing anything with the Wachowskis
other than the Matrix because their track record record even if you like the movies they've
done since financially they've most of them have not been successful all of them maybe
have not been successful so yeah so The Matrix is coming back for a series of films potentially I
guess if the first one for sure yeah I think they'll all be successful regardless yeah right so this is the if this is
true which i'd say it probably is because our scoops are the hottest of scoops the hottest
scoops there are uh then this is the perfect time to bring back the matrix oh because we're in the
middle of the reeves nascence yeah and by the time the matrix rolls around people will be sick of
kiana reef so that lines up with everything that normally works.
So yeah, what do you think?
I think that's very cool and I would like to see that.
I think we've talked about it before.
What would you rather it be?
Would you rather it be a reboot, as it were, or a continuation?
I think you could do a reboot within the current universe.
But a continuation.
I'm not interested in a reboot.
No, same.
Just bring back whoever's left in the cast.
You can even bring back people who are dead you know you you bring in new and younger characters there was
rumors of michael b jordan everybody associated with that i think he's alive and can come back
except for tank who was fired for on set shenanigans or something but i'm not really
sure the specifics of how that played out no neither but they should bring back tank if i
often think about it me too i was reading an article about it the other day,
and I'm like, is this guy hard done by,
or was he genuinely upsetting people?
Because we don't...
Like, there's talk about how it was a pay dispute
or he was threatening people, and we don't really know.
Anyway, it was 20 years ago.
RIP Tank.
Yes.
And he was replaced by the other guy, wasn't he?
Yeah.
And then in the second Matrix, one of them was was like my brother tank died off screen do you remember
yeah he got he got eaten by a robot squid it's very tragic put him on the balls he died
so very embarrassing for him yeah i do wonder how you bring back keanu Reeves and make him do Kung Fu in a way that isn't like, isn't he magic forever?
Can't he do anything?
Yeah.
Yeah.
Is it a new version of the Matrix so he can't?
Yeah.
Yeah.
Or maybe you put him where he probably should have been in the first place, which is no
longer a guy that has to karate people.
Yes, right.
You make him...
But then who's doing the karate?
Morpheus, I guess.
Yeah.
Or a different guy.
Yeah.
Yeah.
We saw that Patrick Willems movie.
We did, yeah.
And he kind of redid the Matrix sequels.
And one of the ideas was that he gets put in a slightly different version of the Matrix,
which he can't control, which is why he has to do Kung Fu.
Because a lot of the characters from the Matrix sequels apparently are from an earlier version.
Yeah, the Merovingian and etc.
Yeah, and a bunch of others.
And the werewolves.
Yeah.
And maybe Keanu Reeves doesn't know how to use his kung fu
because the text writing goes up instead of down.
Exactly.
So he's like, I don't even understand.
And then he realises that he can just put mirrors in his sunglasses
and he's got it.
He's nailed it again.
Yeah, cool.
Yeah.
Anyway, good stuff.
Anyway, that's the hottest scoop we have this week.
I mean, that being said, though, you have provided scant details there.
That's all I got.
It's every bit of information that I've got.
Well, it's just, I mean...
The last Matrix film was filmed in Australia as well.
I should point that out.
Yeah, right.
Because, like, we definitely are getting some Matrix sequels of some kind at some point
because it's a pre-existing property and there are no more new ideas in Hollywood.
That was the last new idea in 1999 and warner brothers has pretty much shanked every major
property exactly what is in the if you don't know in the warner brothers offices there's like a
there's the two key situations emergencies only and when you turn it and the door opens it's just
like the the rights to a matrix. And they take that out.
That's the last thing they have.
Because they already opened the DC vault and the Harry Potter vault
and the Godzilla vault.
It's the time for their last vault.
Yeah, right.
Good on them.
Next bit of news, Mason.
There's been a little bit of moving and shaking over at Lucasfilm,
and you know what that means.
It's Star Wars News, Mason.
It's Star Wars News, Mason.
Remind me again, when are they taking a break from Star Wars? It's Star Wars New Space. Now, remind me again, when are they taking a break from Star Wars?
It's soon, right?
20, after the end of this year.
Okay.
But there's also multiple ongoing series starting up,
and then in three years from then,
we'll be getting another trilogy and then another trilogy.
Okay, right.
Good.
Yeah.
Good?
No.
Okay, somebody out there who is really up to date On all the various
Star Wars timelines
Steel
Steel Saunders is
Yeah that's true
Steel Saunders
Yeah
But you weren't a fan of this show
Yeah
Not a shill
Is what you're saying
That's right exactly
Okay yeah
Do we talk about
There's a video of that guy
Which guy?
The guy on YouTube
Who's like
He got real mad
That he wasn't
invited to Star Wars
oh yeah
I know him
I met him
Christian Arloff
yeah
yeah
real mad
bit of an overreaction
yeah
I was gonna say
but if somebody
could like
draw a little
timeline
and put X's
where there's
gonna be no
Star Wars
for some amount
of time
cause I just
wanna
I just wanna
like a
like a time period like I just want a time period,
maybe just a month,
where there's literally no Star Wars of any kind.
That's all I want.
No news, no comics.
Yeah.
There's got to be...
I mean, since you're a kid,
has it ever really gone away?
No, that's the genesis of the character.
Why he doesn't know what Star Wars is.
Because how did he miss it?
It's unimaginable
that he would not know what it is
that he would not see a reference to it
every day of his life, forever
Even if there was two months, and there was no Star Wars
and there was no Star Wars news on the horizon
I'd always be thinking about Star Wars
I'd be like, Star Wars is going to sneak up
on me, isn't it? Yeah, and I'm not against
Star Wars forever, because why not? No, because it can just turn away at some point I'm against the. I feel like Star Wars is going to sneak up on me, isn't it? Yeah. And I'm not against Star Wars Forever, because why not?
Yeah.
No, because it can just turn away at some point.
I'm against the concept of something called Star Wars Forever, though.
I was...
Who was I speaking to?
I think it was Ben, or maybe Ben's in this on Twitter.
You know, Ben the editor.
I know Ben.
And now Star Wars is trying to be Star Wars how Star Wars used to be.
But Marvel is...
Which is what?
Which is Star Wars every once in a while? but Marvel is which is what which is Star Wars
every once in a while
yeah
or like the big thing
in pop culture
yeah right
like the biggest franchise
but Star Wars at the moment
is Marvel
Marvel is Star Wars
right now
like the way that
Star Wars was big
yeah
in like the 70s and 80s
and a lot of the 90s
yeah
Marvel is that now
now
and in 20 years
everyone will hate
all the new Marvel
and whatever
or love it
and who knows
I don't know
yeah anyway
sure
but this is what the kids
are into now
like Marvel's the thing right
yep
Marvel movies
even bad ones don't tank
or average ones don't tank
but Star Wars movies
have proven that maybe
anyway I don't care
anyway
we've got news Mason
alright I'm ready
Lucasfilm president
I avoided this offer
as long as I could
by talking about Star Wars.
Lucasfilm president Kathleen Kennedy has named Michelle Reguilán as...
Rodriguez?
No, SWP of live action development and production for Lucasfilm.
Basically, she's going to be overseeing all live action and properties, including television and movies.
Cool, man.
Which is huge.
and properties, including television and movies.
Cool, man.
Which is huge.
She's worked on Super 8, Into Darkness, The Force Awakens,
The Rise of Skywalker.
She'd know all about four-step countdowns then, wouldn't she?
No. She worked on Super 8.
Doubt.
That's right.
So it's a pretty big role to kind of step into to oversee all of these things.
It's like a massive promotion.
I wouldn't want to do it.
Good luck.
But no, good on her.
So, you know, we'll see how that bloody plans out.
So she's worked on some good stuff.
Yep.
Except into darkness.
Yeah.
That's not her fault.
You know what they do is they probably, if you want to be like the head of something
in Star Wars
they put you in like a sealed
like you know one of those sensory deprivation
tanks and they just show you a screen
and it's just randomly generated
Twitter abuse
at you for hours
and they open
the tank and they're like how do you feel
and if they're okay they get to be the
BP in charge of production or whatever
or even if they say bad,
it's like,
well, too bad.
Yeah.
Because this is your job.
We're paying you a lot.
So you're going to have to do it.
Oh, no,
second last bit of news.
The Kingsman movie,
the prequel has been announced.
The name of the movie
will be
The King's
Man
Servant.
Yes, that's right.
It's a Pennyworth prequel.
Oh, again. Finally. It's coming. It's a Pennyworth prequel. Oh, again, finally.
It's coming to the...
It's the prequel to the prequel to Gotham.
Excellent.
That's four prequels deep.
I know, right?
That's what the countdown should have been.
Yes.
Yeah.
Is this synopsis?
It's going to be...
What if the four referred to...
It was a four-deep prequel to Sam Raimi's Spider-Man.
What if that's what it was?
So it wasn't about...
It was about...
It's an art-made spy film.
Yeah, it was Peter Parker's great-great-grandparents
who didn't really get up to anything.
Yeah.
But occasionally a spider wanders into shot
and people are like,
oh my God, just like Spider-Man.
You know, just like Spider-Man.
It's a little nod to the head.
People who really know this series, they know that their great-great-grandchild is Peter Parker.
It's going to be Ben Baird, but not that Spider-Man.
A different Spider-Man, but maybe a descendant of this Spider.
But we don't know that definitively.
We don't know that for sure.
We're going to have to watch all the prequels leading up to know if that's the same Spider family.
They're not going to produce him.
This is very unpopular.
We know.
The fans know.
They know. You don't know. I wouldn not going to produce them. This is very unpopular. We know. The fans know. They know.
You don't know. I wouldn't put it past Sodi.
So this is the Kingsman prequel.
Synopsis. As a collection of
the world's history's worst tyrants
and criminals, masterminds gather
to plot a
war to wipe out millions.
One man must race it against
time to stop them.
Interesting.
So I guess it's an origin
for the Kingsman.
Yes.
He's like,
I'm just one King's man.
And they're like,
what if you were many King's men?
And he's like,
ooh.
All the King's horses indeed,
he says.
Yes.
Let's do this.
Ooh, totally tubular.
Oh, I've got a clockwork bag
that shoots a spring
that has a poison dart in it.
A clockwork bag, you say?
Yeah, it's got gears in it, Mason. All right. What, do you think there's not going to be a bag with dart in it. The clockwork bag yourself. Yeah, it's got gears in it, Mason.
What, do you think there's not going to be a bag with gears in it?
You're a fucking idiot if you don't think that's the case.
Just like a canvas sack?
What is it?
Yeah.
You know like Mary Poppins' bag?
Yeah.
But it's full of clockwork shit.
Oh, yeah, nice.
It's probably got a really big camera that makes a lot of noise
and they're like, this is the latest in spy technology
and us being the modern day audience
are like
well to them
that sounds really good
but for us
we know that
everyone's just on our phones
that's right
haven't even heard
of Google Glasses
that's right
alright cool
so it's
do you think
they're going to use
historical villains
do you think it's
him versus Hitler
or something
I think it's a
World War 1 one
so yeah
there's a bunch of bad
so Hitler's grandparents
yeah that's right or just Hitler because he was also around then when So yeah, there's a bunch of bad... So Hitler's grandparents.
Yeah, that's right.
Or just Hitler, because he was also around then.
And when that character appears on screen,
they'll be like, that's Hitler's grandparents.
Are you kidding me?
We don't know.
We know.
Not everybody knows, but we know that's Hitler's.
Because he's going to have... You know how Howard Stark often looks?
He'll have similar facial...
He'll have a mustache.
Yeah, sure.
Well, Tony Stark has that, and he also has that.
So Hitler's going to have the little...
Hitler's granddad is going to have the Hitler mustache,
but it's two elements slightly to the side.
Like left of center?
Yeah, yeah, yeah.
Or he's going to have the Hitler mustache, but also big sideburns.
So you know it's Hitler's granddad.
Should we be laughing about Hitler's granddad?
Probably not.
No, I just think that would be...
That's ridiculous.
Or Hitler mustache, Tony Stark beard.
Okay.
So it's not connected at the mustache part.
Yeah, not connected at the mustache.
I can buy that.
Yeah.
Okay.
I speak of...
Or, wait, wait, I haven't finished one more.
All right.
Hitler mustache, flavour saver. All the way downista. Wait, wait. I haven't finished one more. All right. Hitler mustache.
Flavor saver.
All the way down.
All the way down.
Yep.
Yep.
Very good.
And all the way up.
His eyebrows connect. Oh, he's one of those guys.
Yeah.
Yeah, sort that out.
But he doesn't have any actual eyebrows.
It's just the middle bit.
It's the middle bit.
Yeah.
Man, people are going to see this guy come, but how's he going to be disguised? It doesn't matter any actual eyebrows it's just the middle bit it's the middle bit yeah man people are going to
see this guy come
but how's he going to
be disguised
it doesn't matter
Avengers Endgame
will be returning
to cinemas
because it wants
to beat Avatar
yep that's the reason
and it will
off the back of this
it's going to be
the same film
except there's some
bonus credit stuff
there's a deleted scene
a tribute
which I assume
is to Stan Lee
yeah
and a few surprises
says Kevin Feige,
which means probably a post-credits, I'd imagine.
I would say so, yeah.
Yeah, because they are going to bloody Comic-Con this year,
so we're going to get that whole slate.
Yeah, right.
Of movies released.
What do you think?
Well, maybe throw in a gag reel, maybe, something like that?
Yeah, maybe.
A lot of people are suggesting,
a lot of people want the guy from Ant-Man,
whose name I cannot recall, Michael Peña?
Is that his name?
Yeah.
Recap the entire MCU in like six minutes.
Hasn't he done that already?
Without a break.
Hasn't he done that already with Paul Rudd?
Did he?
I think he did do it.
Okay.
Didn't he sit down with him and do it?
I think they did at Comic-Con.
I don't know if they've released it.
Oh, okay.
Right.
That's probably it.
And they got to the Incredible Hulk and they're like, oh, we didn't see it.
They just skip it.
Okay.
Right.
Yeah.
Okay.
Well, I reckon that's going to be it.
All right then.
It's Toy Story time. We skipped it. Okay, right. Okay, well, I reckon that's going to be it. All right, then. It's Toy Story time.
Toy Story time.
Again, because it started in 95 when I was in primary school,
which is insane.
Yeah, right.
Did you see?
Well, look, okay.
Did I see it?
Yes, I did.
Toy Story 4.
Excellent.
There's a video on my channel this week on a Toy Story sequel
that was never made.
They went a long way to making it.
Yeah.
And then without Pixar, and then it all, something changed.
Yeah, right.
Anyway, I think it's a really interesting story.
Toy Story?
Yes.
It's the real Toy Story 3, sort of, that they didn't make.
Interesting.
It's on my channel.
I'll link it below.
But look, okay, this movie was expecting the $140 million in its opening weekend in the
US, but it's going to hit a disappointing $120 to $125 million.
Boo.
Boo.
Wow.
That's still the third or fourth highest animated opening,
depending on whether it beats Shrek the Third's $121 million.
So that's exciting, isn't it?
It really is, yeah.
It's been a pretty weak summer after Endgame.
People are wondering why these blockbusters are failing,
like Men in Black, Godzilla, whatever.
Those aren't great movies, I think might be part of it,
or a lot of people don't think. But I genuinely
think that Endgame just sucked the air
out of everything. People see their
one movie, and then they're like,
I've seen a big movie.
I'm exhausted.
People literally hit their mark of
like, we've been doing this for 11 years.
We're tired. And that was in April or whenever that movie came out.
Leave us alone for a minute.
Yeah.
So, but that's still, this is a massive opening,
which is good because, you know, it's a good series.
And I didn't think this would be anything but above average.
Me too.
But what did you think the story was?
Oh, no.
Okay.
So let me think.
This is toys.
Yep.
And they're magical for some reason. So they're alive. I don't know if they're magical. I guess they are. Yeah, I let me think. This is toys. Yep. And they're magical for some reason.
So they're alive.
I don't know if they're magical.
I guess they are.
Yeah, I don't know.
Anyway.
Maybe they've got human guts in them.
Maybe.
Well, at least in Toy Story 5,
Toy Story 5, do they have human guts in them?
And are they little guts
or are they just like bits of regular sized human guts?
Like does Woody have
like a kidney in him?
You know?
A kidney.
Yeah.
He's powered by a kidney.
He could fit a kidney
in his head,
a small one.
Maybe.
Like a child's kidney.
Yeah.
Yeah.
Good.
Anyway.
So,
the toys,
the toys you love
from all the other
Toy Stories.
Anyway,
they're with Bonnie now because Toy Story 3 happened.
You remember that?
But then Bonnie goes to school.
Kindergarten.
Kindergarten.
And then she makes a little friend.
But Mason, it's good that you make friends when you go to kindergarten, isn't it?
No, James.
I mean, she literally made a friend.
With human guts?
Yeah, with human guts.
It's horrifying.
This series takes a turn, let me tell you.
But no, she makes a little toy out of a ball.
Yeah, she's a little Michael Fassbender's robot from Alien,
just making things out of human guts.
Yeah, just playing God and it comes to life.
Yeah, so, yeah.
And then adventures ensue,
and old friends and lovers are reunited,
and carnivals and spooky antique shops.
Yeah.
Isn't it?
It is.
Okay, before we really...
It's a big scale, but it's also, like all the other Toy Story movies, a little scale.
A little bloody story.
A little scale.
What's your relationship with the Toy Story films?
I have seen the first two.
You haven't seen the third one, obviously.
I don't think so.
I don't think so.
They're all on Stan.
Then maybe I should watch three.
Yeah.
I re-watched them all for this, having already seen them all. Yeah. So the first one when I was a kid. They're all great. They are great. They're all on Stan. Then maybe I should watch three. Yeah, I re-watched them all for this, having already seen them all.
Yeah.
So the first one when I was a kid.
They're all great.
They are great.
They're all good in their different ways.
I think the first one is still my favourite.
There is some fucking cracking jokes in that film, man.
Still, to this day.
There's some cracking jokes in this one as well.
I agree.
So when was the last time you watched any of the previous ones?
I watched them this week.
How does the animation compare?
Like the modern one.
The first one looks like absolute junk but you don't really notice
yeah right because you just it is the first fully cgi movie yeah but the characters like the way
they move and the personality and the voice acting it's also dead on yeah that you don't you you it
doesn't matter at all like you you could release that now. Yeah.
And it would still, it would still work. It's a textures thing.
It is, yeah.
I think it's, I felt the same with The Incredibles 2.
Yeah.
Like, for the most part, they're exactly the same.
But like, they've just gone like, make those fabrics look really nice.
Yeah, right.
Make the hair look good.
Yeah.
You know, so.
You should absolutely watch 3.
I think 3 is probably, 3 rehashes a lot of the plot of 2. Uh-huh. But the ending of 3. Yeah. You know, so. You should absolutely watch 3. I think 3 is probably, 3 rehashes a lot of the plot of 2.
Uh-huh.
But the ending of 3.
Yeah.
Is phenomenal.
Does Randy Newman do the music?
He does.
Absolutely.
He does.
He's back in 4 as well.
He certainly is.
Mm-hmm.
He does a bloody good, I love the, because I've been watching them a few times this week
because I got my kid onto them.
Yeah, yeah.
I don't know if you remember, but in the first Toy Story, the song that he sings when Buzz
Lightyear realizes he's a toy,
and it's so sad, and then Buzz Lightyear has a moment where he's like,
you know what, I can fly, I'm not a toy, I can do this.
And then he jumps and he falls, and then it's sad again,
and it's just brutal.
It's almost like a metaphor for life when you reach for a goal
and just face plant.
Which a lot of these movies are, I guess.
When you realise you just do not have the aptitude and skill to do it.
And you never will.
And you never will.
Without severe body modification, you know?
That's right.
Because he can't fly.
No.
Unless they tape a drone to him.
Yeah.
Which they didn't in any of the movies.
They tape a rocket to him.
Oh, yeah.
He can get a little bit of a boost from his wings.
Yeah. He'll kick that open. That is still an amazing toy. Yeah, right. any of the movies they take a rocket to him oh yeah he can get a little bit of a boost from his wings yeah
he'll kick that open
that is still
an amazing toy
yeah right
and ever since
I've been a kid
I'm like
I should buy one of those
yeah right
like it's never left me
that I'm like
I'm gonna get one of these
would you buy a Woody
in a buzz
no
really
just get a
no I probably would
for the duo
yeah I feel like
he doesn't stand up
he's too floppy
no I know that
but you put him
on a bookshelf
but I feel like if you're gonna like up. He's just floppy. No, I know that. You put him on a bookshelf.
But I feel like if you're going to...
If you're going to buy it
not to play with it,
it would be like...
Actually, I'd get it for my son.
That's what I'd do.
Yeah.
Which character does he like the most?
He likes Buzz,
though he calls him Lightning Buzz.
Not his name.
Kids don't know.
Not his name.
Yeah.
So anyway,
you should watch them all again if you haven't recently.
And three you haven't seen, which is great.
But this is a really good film.
I agree.
And I thought entirely unnecessary, but Andrew Stanton, who's a big Pixar guy, he apparently
was secretly working on this during the third one.
Like he kind of made this rough outline.
He kept stealing stuff from the set of three.
Even though they were like,
this is it, it's done.
Yeah.
Yeah, the ideas were still there,
but it still feels like a movie that,
because it's been nine years since the last one.
Did you say this movie feels unnecessary?
No, no, I thought it would be unnecessary.
At the time, yeah, same.
And I guess it is because you could end it at three,
but they find
a way for the story to keep going in that what does a toy do when it doesn't really serve a
purpose anymore yeah right just throw itself into the garbage you know yeah yeah i think there's a
lot of and the best movies do this and toy stories do this very well there's a lot of like in kids
movies i mean there's parallels to real life real life which adults can relate to and make them crushingly depressed.
Yeah, right.
And this I feel a big part of it is.
Woody as a dad.
Woody as a dad, exactly.
Being a parent and your kid grows up and then they don't need you
and then what do you do?
Because that's a fear of mine, you know what I mean?
When my kid grows up and then he never talks to me for no reason.
Exactly.
You know, like we do to our parents.
Right, exactly, yeah.
That's not true.
But, yeah, so, yeah, you caught some of that.
I get that.
I get references and metaphors.
I've picked up a few metaphors in my time.
Because if it was just like, oh, no, one of them's been stolen again
and they've got to get their parts are missing
and there's another villain and the toys didn't get played with enough
and that toy's evil or whatever.
Yeah, uh-huh.
There's not...
I mean, there's a bit of that, but...
Sure, yeah.
But it doesn't really go that way.
Yeah.
Woody is great.
I agree, yeah.
Tom Hanks is amazing in this role.
He started recording this in...
Not this movie, but all of them in 91.
Yeah, right.
He recorded the first...
They recorded the first version of it and then they threw it out.
Yeah.
So he's been doing that character for this long he's had a he's had a full uh movie career
and a full animated movie career yeah exactly yeah insane uh so i just like his exasperation
and the it's all in the body language of the floppy doll like it's always been a great design
but also i think if if he just did, like, dry delivery of everything.
And there are movies, there are even, like, multi-million dollar movies where you get a, you know, a name actor and it's just kind of like...
Talking about Shark Tale?
I've never seen Shark Tale.
But just like...
But are you talking about Shark Tale?
Yeah, absolutely, I'm talking about Shark Tale.
But, you know, and it's just like they it's the
paycheck and they go in and they whatever yeah and they just say the lines and like there's a
lot of care and attention ewan mcgregor is valiant the pigeon you familiar with that one
he's a carry pigeon during world war ii oh how'd that go the hawks were nazis. All right. Have I got your attention? Yes, you do.
Bad.
All right, cool.
Yeah.
So yeah, so he's good.
Everyone's good.
Yeah, everyone is good.
I feel there are some characters that get sort of, you know,
this is the story of Tom,
this is the story of Woody and Forky,
who's the new character.
And a lot of the other characters kind of get relegated to the cheer squad, really.
Which is a shame, but every movie they pick up more people.
They picked up Bullseye and Jesse in the second one.
And then they pick up a stack of Bonnie's toys in the last one.
And Mr. Potato Head, the actor.
Oh, Don Rickles.
Don Rickles is dead in real life, which is a shame because he's one of my favourite characters.
They used stuff they had left
over, and I'm like, oh, I wonder what they've got for
this movie. Nothing. It's just
him going, oh, Woody!
My ear fell off or whatever.
Yeah, right, right. There'd be a lot of
archival audio of Don Rickles calling
people chuckleheads. I guess
they couldn't use that. Yeah, he is hilarious.
He's so good.
So it's kind of a shame. I think it's a bit Buzz Light.
Yeah.
Yeah, thank you.
You're welcome.
We would have sat here for hours if I hadn't said that.
Something that should go there.
Yeah.
James, why aren't you talking?
Maybe I can fill it with Star Wars news until you think of it.
I don't know.
Yeah, so I feel like the Buzz Lightyear character, it's not his movie though, is it?
No, for sure.
And does he have any more of an arc to him?
I think so.
Without kind of getting too far into it.
I feel like the Duke Caboom character does the Buzz Lightyear thing.
That's true.
Yeah.
Yeah.
He's kind of a good-natured idiot who sort of believes in his toy programming, I guess.
Yeah, to an extent.
Yeah, right.
Yeah, and Keanu Reeves is good.
He does some funny, funny things.
Yeah, although Buzz does have a B-plot in this.
Yeah.
In which he...
They kind of dumb him down a bit.
Yeah.
Yeah.
But in this, he sort of learns to rely on his inner voice which is the
button he pushes that tells him things and it sort of leads him on it like he does whatever it tells
him to do yeah and then it sort of leads him on a journey yeah to you know and eventually joins up
with the other characters which i enjoyed i think that that was a funny bit yeah we don't not
everything has to be kind of again sad and schmaltzy which is not really for me yeah no i can understand
that i think they'll say there's heart to that character,
which could definitely be explored in another movie.
Because the Toy Story 3 that they didn't make,
that was going to be a buzz movie,
where he gets shipped back to Thailand because he's broken.
He's defective.
Oh, right, yeah.
But I'll never make it.
We're not going to make it.
And he meets Robocop.
Yeah, yes.
There's not a dissimilar thing from that.
But, yeah, I'd like to see if they do another one,
which I think
this does leave it open to
it does open the door
to more than just like
kids and toys
yeah exactly
it's a bigger universe
it absolutely is
yeah
I think Bo Peep
is really good in this
they got the
I can't remember the name
of the actor
but she comes back
she's only in one and two
because she disappears in three
oh right
you find out that she's gone
and they don't explain it
and Woody's sad but then he's kind of like,
we've got to keep being Andy's toys.
I'm a dad.
Yeah.
Your dad's got to keep moving.
Yeah, it's pretty much.
Really smart.
Oh, yeah.
And she's really great.
And really, they make a really interesting character out of her
and how far she's come.
That's true, yeah.
From being out on her own.
And we meet sort of her new crew.
Yeah.
Which is very cool.
There's a joke with her new crew and the G.I. Joe's characters that she's with.
Uh-huh.
That is just so on point.
It's ridiculous.
Do you know what I'm talking about?
Tell me after because I've probably forgotten.
Okay.
No, I will.
There's also new characters, obviously.
There's the villain in Gabby.
Mm-hmm.
I think it's Christina Hendricks.
It is Christina Hendricks, yeah.
And she's got weird dummies that she...
Yes.
Ventriloquist dummies that kind of flop around her.
Yeah.
Yeah.
Spooky stuff.
There's never been a non-horrifying ventriloquist dummy.
Oh, great.
Yeah.
Woody was supposed to be one initially.
That was the plan.
Oh, right.
It was going to be, yeah, not good.
No kid would love that.
Don't do it.
Except for a kid who's going to become a ventriloquist, which is...
That's right. Exactly. No, no, no, no, no. But there's also Key and Peele, who are quite funny as well. Don't do it. Except for a kid who's going to become a ventriloquist. That's right.
Exactly.
No, no, no.
But there's also Key and Peele who are quite funny as well.
Yeah, for sure.
As the new stuff.
As the kind of carnival prizes.
Yeah.
Who are tied together at the wrist.
Yeah.
Plush Rush was quite good.
I wish I didn't see it in the trailer.
Oh, I didn't see it.
But it's good.
Okay, right.
Cool.
Yeah, nice.
Yeah, man.
I don't know.
What else do you say?
It looks amazing. It looks amazing. That, right, cool. Yeah, nice. Yeah, man, I don't know. What else do you say? It looks amazing.
It looks amazing.
That cat looks so real.
Yeah.
They just film a real cat?
They just film the cat.
When are they going to make a live-action Toy Story movie, though?
Do you know what I mean?
When are they going to make a Toy Story, but it's for men?
You know, when's men's Toy Story coming out?
Boy's Story.
Boy's Story.
For men.
Yes, exactly.
Thank you.
When's it going to be international men's toy story?
Yeah, absolutely.
I think the way this could have gone is like, well, they go back to Andy and Andy's got a kid and then they're Andy's kids toys again.
Which is fine.
Yeah.
I'm glad they didn't do something like that.
And also I feel that that kind of, you know,
they're all lovable characters and we think they're great and whatever.
It's depressing.
It's depressing,
but it also kind of stretches credibility that a kid,
that Andy's kids or, you know,
whatever are still going to enjoy like some old crap.
You know what I mean?
Sure.
I mean, they're lovable characters.
I mean, that most likely is still pretty good.
Still pretty sweet.
You're right. You're absolutely right. Spoilers? Sure. I'm going to say lovable characters. I mean, that Buzz Lightyear's still pretty good. Still pretty sweet. You're right.
You're absolutely right.
Spoilers?
Sure.
I'm going to say best movie ever.
Me too.
I did not expect it to be.
I thought it would be fine.
Yeah.
I thought it would be like, okay, it's another one.
Great.
But it's...
The third sequel.
How good is a third sequel possibly going to be?
But it's really, really solid.
Absolutely.
Okay.
So spoilers.
The villain's not really a villain.
No.
Which I'm glad because in the last two Toy Story movies,
the villain is,
nobody played with me enough,
and so you can't be toys.
I'm going to destroy you all.
And kids will forget you, whatever.
Which they will and do, ultimately.
She's misunderstood.
She's had a rough trot.
Yeah.
And I liked it because Woody ends up giving her his voice box.
Yeah.
And that's like a massive sacrifice.
And I think that's also like life.
You kind of, you do give things up along the way, either like unintentionally or you intentionally
give something away to somebody, whether that be a part of you or a limb, like a kidney.
Yeah.
I was going to say, it's a metaphor for the kidney that is inside Woody.
Yeah.
That he gives to her.
But you know, like there's a self-sacrifice that comes with getting older.
Yes, for sure.
Whether or not you want to or not.
Yeah, right.
And I think this is a really good use of that metaphor.
That is true.
Yeah.
I also thought the ending was really good the way that Woody leaves, obviously.
Yes.
And it felt like that's where he should be.
Yeah, exactly.
Like, because Bonnie doesn't really need him.
Yeah.
There is that kind of.
He's learned to let go.
He's learned to let go.
He's fooling himself to be like, Bonnie's always, always going to love Woody, the old
cowboy crap from the fifties.
But yeah, I think he obviously, with a human kidney in his head.
Yeah, exactly.
Right.
But yeah, I like, if, I mean, he always kind of knows because he's trying to rescue Forky
because it's the right thing to do because he's also like, I don't have anything else.
That's true, yeah.
You know what I mean?
Because you hear about relationships where the kids move out and then the parents, like,
they don't really know each other because their whole life was focused around their
kids and then they've got no purpose anymore.
You know what I mean?
So in the Toy Story universe,
because at the end they decide
they're going to go on adventures together,
Bo Peep and...
They're going to have their own Toy Story.
So, oh my God.
For men.
Good.
So do the toys only collapse
because a real person sees them?
No.
Can they not do that?
They choose to do it.
They choose to do it.
That's what I thought.
Because in the first one, it's the only time they really break that rule.
They do it to Sid.
That's right.
They've not really done it since, I believe.
I might be wrong.
It's probably a while.
There's spin-offs.
Do you know in a lot of the spin-offs, not so much now,
but they get Tom Hanks' brother to do the voice of Woody.
Tom Hanks' brother, Colin Hanks.
No, that's his son.
No, that's the musician, Mason.
Tron Hanks.
Tron Hanks.
What's his name?
Is it Tim?
I don't know.
It's Tron Hanks.
Tron Hanks.
He's the computer-built replica of Tom Hanks
that they get when Tom Hanks is not available.
He looks like Tom Hanks from the 80s. Exactly. And he has all the skill of Tom Hanks that they get when Tom Hanks is not available. He looks like Tom Hanks
from the 80s.
Exactly.
And he has all the skill
of Tom Hanks
but occasionally
he'll zap you with a laser
and he'll send you
in a computer world.
And he's in a neon suit.
Thank you.
Yes.
We've done all the
Tron references.
We've done them all, yeah.
But what was I going to say?
Yeah, so
do you remember
that episode of Scrubs
where they put together
Turner and Hooch?
Yes.
The Hooch character.
No, sorry.
The Turner character is Tom Hanks' brother.
Oh, that's right.
Yes.
So yeah, there you go.
He looks like Tom Hanks, except he's bald.
Like that's the difference.
But that's Hollywood, mate.
You keep your hair.
That's how it goes.
Absolutely.
That's right.
Anyway, where was I going with this?
No, they choose to do it.
Okay, right.
Because it breaks the magic of the universe or whatever.
Yeah, right, right, right.
Yeah.
So it's kind of, It kind of must be frustrating
Like you can't get anywhere
Because you're just constantly flopping on the ground
And then a kid picks you up
And throws you under a car or something
For sure, yeah
Or whatever, yeah
Yeah, yeah, yeah
How can you even die in this universe?
I guess you have to be shredded, right?
I guess so, yeah
Like where's your brain?
I don't know
I mean, it's not in your head It's not in your head You've got a kidney in there, where's your brain i don't know i mean it's not your head
exactly yeah i genuinely don't know like i don't need to explain the mechanics no exactly and also
it's not a midichlorian situation and it's also like well exactly you know i don't you know the
the nagging question i have is like well surely other kids have created other toys in the past
what's happened to all of them or Or is this just a Bonnie thing?
I don't know.
It doesn't matter.
I guess it's part of if a kid just believes it's a toy, it's a toy.
Yeah, right.
Then what does that mean?
If you pick up a paperclip and go, this is my friend Terry.
Yeah.
Does that mean Terry?
It'll be like, do you want some help making your Word document?
I can help you with formatting.
Am I still a current reference?
I don't even know.
Remember the paperclip from Microsoft Word?
I need a kidney.
I'll poke it out of you.
I'll unfold and poke you.
That's an action item for this week.
Does anybody remember the paperclip from Microsoft Word?
Is he still around?
I don't think so.
Does anybody just use Google Docs now?
Yeah, everybody does, I believe.
around i don't know does anybody just use google docs yeah everybody does i believe yeah so it was like having woody say goodbye to to buzz was it's a big deal absolutely they're mates you know and
for a lot of those other people they've been mates for even longer like the slinky dog and whatever
yeah so it was a really good kind of fitting goodbye and it wasn't just like he's got to say
goodbye to another kid it's like no he's got to say goodbye to another kid. It's like, no, he's got his own things.
Kids are unimportant now.
That's right, exactly.
They're not relevant.
You can buy that Ferrari.
Hey, Bonnie, you don't care about me?
Well, I don't care about you more.
That's right.
That's right.
Enjoy your dumb fork.
Forky's not going to last.
No.
No, I don't want to see that scene.
Definitely not.
That's it.
Cool. Cool, man. I got some reviews here i'm ready it's from david kamala harris 2020 oh yeah that's just from me that's your that's
your that's your hot recommendation yeah uh david kamala harris had 2020 mcdonald i just saw toy
story just saw toy story 4 so so good cried a laughed a lot, and I enjoyed that there wasn't a real villain.
Best movie ever.
Pronounceable name says,
Toy Story 4 only needed to be made as a gift to Woody.
In three movies, the greatest good for him to uphold is being there for a kid.
Now that he can't do that anymore, they decided,
let's make him happy being with his lost toy.
Let's lost toy with his girlfriend.
Frothy Solution says, I hate to be that guy. Great name. That's the best name so far. I hate to be that guy. make him happy being with his lost toy uh that's what's up with his girlfriend uh frothy solution
says i hate to be that guy that's the best name so far i hate to be that guy whenever someone
we talked about this whenever someone says they hate to be that guy i will say guess what you're
that guy you don't hate it you're doing it you love it every minute of it anyway uh but we had
a perfect wrap up with the franchise with toy story 3 uh the toy story 4 i'll put it this way
they could easily make Toy Story 5.
It was a good movie, even expands the universe,
but it's not a franchise capper.
I don't think it is.
It doesn't, it's not like a...
Also, the toys can email each other.
They figured that out in 3.
Yeah, good point.
I think I keep in touch.
Yeah, they could like steal somebody's credit card details
and put themselves in a box and then UPS them to like,
to the other kid's house or whatever.
It's easier that. That's right.
So many solutions.
Contents. Kids toys.
That's right.
And kidneys.
Rush. Rush service. Keep refrigerated. Contains kidneys.
Old Greg says,
I was very sceptical when Toy Story 4 was announced.
I thought 3 ended perfectly, but I just got out of 4 and it was great.
I really cry in movies, but I couldn't help myself when Gabby Gabby found her lost kid.
Also, kidney. Kidney? Kidney gabby found her lost kid also kidney huh kidney she found a lost kid very good also key and peel were hilarious uh yep that's it good stuff make another one in 14 years what's the running gag
you're referring to with the army man okay it's a spoiler uh the high five it's not a money it
happens twice it's true yeah yeah that's a good it's got a big laugh in my cinema. Yes. I made sure of it.
Nice.
I was like, that's funny, everybody.
Rewind it, I said.
Maybe people didn't get it.
Yeah.
Don't you know who I am on a podcast?
Rewind the movie.
What are we reading?
What are we going to read?
Yeah.
Then the theme song comes in.
Absolutely.
Or maybe it already did.
I don't know.
I'm doing the theme.
What are we reading? Or maybe it already did. I don't know. I'm doing the theme. You might want to make me sound like an idiot.
Yeah.
So we'd say what we're reading, what we're going to read,
and then you'd put the theme song in, and then I'd be like,
and the theme song goes here.
And then this all happens.
Then I'd be a real dumbass.
I guess we'll see what happens, won't we?
We sure will.
What are you reading or going to read?
I think I'm going to watch Neon Genesis Evangelion.
It's on Netflix.
It's on Netflix now.
It's re-dubbed, apparently.
Okay.
I wouldn't notice.
About time, I say.
Didn't like that old dubbing?
You've not seen it, I don't think.
Let me just say, Mason, about time.
Is this a new version of a character guy who knows everything about
ultraman except this guy who knows everything about anime yeah okay it's guy who knows
everything about anime i love him what's your stance on subs versus dubs mate it depends on
obviously the era that it's from it's good great yeah look at this obvious and there's good
examples of both yeah uh this new dub of Evangelion, which I think, as I said earlier,
that's what I prefer.
Yeah, it's about time for that.
But if you want to get fanatic about it.
And you would because you're the guy who knows everything about anime.
Subs all day, baby.
Yeah.
He's nailed it.
Anyway, you are going to watch it.
How many episodes are there?
I know, but how many do you think there are?
He reached the limit of his knowledge, but he got it all right somehow.
How many episodes is there?
Yeah.
There's 35 or something.
Is that all?
I can check.
I'll check.
I just remember it feeling like more because it's such a rich narrative.
Oh, yes.
All right.
Yeah.
And this is also the retelling.
Is that right? I don't believe so. Yeah, yes. All right. Yeah. And this is also the retelling. Is that right?
I don't believe so.
Yeah, I know.
Oh, you're going to be this guy.
Which anime do you think it is?
Yes.
Where they kind of, where they say, don't watch the original one.
Watch like.
There's 26 episodes.
Okay.
Wow.
Yeah, right.
I'm going to have to re-watch this.
Yeah, nice.
Well, Evangelion ended and then a lot of people
were up
like a lot of fans
were upset with the ending
so they did
an additional thing
called the end of Evangelion
which is basically like
oh this is how
you want it to end huh
well this is how
it is going to end
and it's basically
it
it's the reddit version
yeah well depending on
all the women are edited
depending on the
interpretation of it it's basically like,
hey, guess what?
You're the main character and the main character sucks.
That's the interpretation, basically.
I love that.
Speaking of main characters, but the main character sucks.
Yes.
Frank Miller's Superman Year One came out last week.
Oh, tell me about it.
It's bad.
It's really...
Not really bad.
Because they've been doing
a lot of year ones recently,
I think.
Yeah, but this is like
the Dark Knight universe,
but it's Superman
when he's at school.
Wait, when you say the Dark,
you mean like the
Nolan Dark Knight?
Sorry, the Dark Knight
Returns universe.
Oh, I see.
I assume.
So it's the Frank Miller
DC universe,
where everybody's insane.
Yeah, and the art's good.
Yeah, right.
Because Frank Miller is not doing it anymore. I mean, Frank Miller was an artist's insane. Yeah, and the art's good. Yeah, right. Because Frank Miller's not doing it anymore.
I mean, Frank Miller was an artist.
Yeah.
Like, he did some good art.
He remains an artist.
No, he doesn't really draw anymore, I believe.
Yeah, I don't think he's...
But I think, like, I mean, he's had different...
He's had a lot of different styles.
He's had a lot of different opinions.
When he did Daredevil, he was a fairly kind of standard issue as an illustrator.
And then when he moved to Sin City,
people were like,
oh, that's a really novel use of his skill set.
And when he did 300,
people were like,
this guy can really draw dongs.
Exactly, yeah.
He knows what he's doing.
Where can he go from here?
Probably nowhere.
This is the best he's ever done.
And then sort of with, you know,
the later Dark Knight stuff,
he kind of...
Yeah.
I mean, a lot of people are like,
I like how weird and stylized that is but
no because it's incomprehensible a lot of it yeah like i get it sure but it's mostly you get it
because you've seen batman before you can extrapolate what batman would look like if the
man drawing batman was insane exactly yeah so yeah anyway so it's this first issue i think there's
going to be three or four i don't know uh But it's quite long, and it's basically Superman in high school.
And everybody seems to know that there's something up with Clark Kent,
and maybe he has amazing powers.
Like, it's kind of known.
They're like, what are you up to now, Clark?
Anyway, there's this group of bullies that terrorize everybody,
including the teachers, and nobody stops them.
And also, the narration, or whatever it's called,
it might be Superman as it's happening
or it might be a guy thinking back who's not Superman
because it keeps changing tense.
Oh, I see.
So I don't know whether it's intentional.
It seems like a mistake.
I see, right?
Yeah.
But Superman...
Okay, but does it make more sense
if you just imagine it's just Frank Miller saying it?
Yes, yes, it does. Okay, right. And it's not an incomprehensible story. Like, it makes it make more sense if you just imagine it's just Frank Miller saying it? Yes, yes it does.
Okay, all right.
And it's not an incomprehensible story.
Like, it makes sense.
It's very clear.
Yeah.
And so Superman, or Clark Kent's like, no, I could easily beat up these bullies, but
should I really?
And then there's a moment where he gets in a fight.
I did.
Yeah.
In the future where I'm narrating this.
So he ends up like getting in a fight and he just kind of shoves them and it's an easy
fight for him. And his dad's like, you shouldn't fight and he just kind of shoves them and it's an easy fight for
him and his dad's like you shouldn't fight and don't do it and he's like but i could have been
superman and they're like well there's other solutions and when you finish school you should
travel the world and he's like i will and i'm gonna do it better and then later in the comic
he just beats him up again anyway and i'm like what's the message here and there's like don't
listen to your dad that's the lesson There's an attempted rape on Lana Lang.
Like, it takes a turn that way.
It's just, it's totally all over the place.
Right.
The characterization of Superman and Clark Kent and Smallville and bullies and women
and dialogue and flashbacks and narration and how it connects to the Dark Knight universe.
I'm not sure what it's supposed to be.
He probably got scripted.
You should read it.
Yeah, okay. I will. What is it? $3.99? That might be a bit more. Oh, jeez. universe i'm not yeah sure what it's supposed to be he probably got script you should read it yeah
okay i will what is it 399 that might be a bit more oh geez uh is it did he get some sort of
script supervision from allison mack the smallville actor who joined entirely possible yeah right
maybe yeah so it's uh i definitely can't recommend it but it it's interesting. Yeah, right. Yeah. I'm going to look up Alison Maxey, which is up to recently.
Jail, I believe.
It's probably jail.
Yeah.
Soon find out, won't we?
Oh, I'm ready.
I know.
I'm excited.
Okay, all right.
Pleaded guilty to racketeering charges in April 2019.
Currently awaiting sentencing.
Great.
Yeah.
Not in jail at the moment?
Legal issues.
Let's check the legal issues tab.
Here we go.
She's in 2018, April 2018, she was released on a $5 million bond
and held under house arrest under the custody of her parents in California.
Holy shit.
Fate worse than death.
$5 million.
I think she's still under house arrest.
Why did she do this?
I don't know.
Yeah.
It's a cult thing, yeah.
Cults, man.
Yeah.
That's why I'm distrusting of literally everything and everyone.
All right.
Because you're afraid you'll be converted into a cult.
Yeah, I turn around and I'm like, am I in a cult?
Is Planet Broadcasting Great Mates group a cult?
Yeah.
Well, you'll never know until you sign up.
Planet Broadcasting Great Mates official on Facebook.
Come on down.
Come on down.
Should we do letters now?
I think we should.
Let's do letters.
Letters theme. The classic down. Should we do letters now? I think we should. Let's do letters. Letters theme.
The classic one was letters, oh letters.
We love you, some letters.
They're only a day my way.

Oh, nice.
Yeah, bro.
Oh, sorry.
If you do want to reach the show, hashtag Weekly Planet Port on Twitter.
Hashtag.
Nice. That's a little thing from everyday 420.
Bongs.
I also know everything about weed and smoking marijuana.
Well, you would because you're the guy who knows everything about anime,
so of course you know everything about weed too.
You can vape it.
You can hotbox a car or a tent.
It's a tent.
Yeah, man.
It's pretty cool that you know those things.
So, always420 says...
Oh, sorry, weeklyplaytopod.gmail.com
and Mason will read your emails.
Yes.
It says, what are your thoughts on a live-action Spider-Verse movie
with Maguire, Holland and Garfield?
Tom Holland said this week that he would love to do that.
Yeah.
I think we've said this before, but yes, please, and forever.
You?
I would love to say that.
Have we talked about this before and enough?
I think we've talked about it before.
We should talk about it more.
Okay.
Well, that opens up the multiverse.
Yeah.
The multiverse is open, I should say.
See, that's the thing.
Would Garfield do it?
Yeah.
The cat?
Definitely.
Yeah, for sure.
Voiced by Bill Murray?
Yeah, lure him with a lasagna.
He'd do it.
You better believe it.
Do you reckon if a cat ate a whole lasagna, it would die?
Yeah.
Oh, yeah.
Wait, is the cat Garfield?
I mean, yeah.
Then no.
No.
Because it hasn't. Yeah, for sure. He's eaten so many lasagnas. Yeah, that'sfield? I mean, yeah. Then no. Because it hasn't.
Yeah, for sure.
He's eaten so many lasagnas.
Yeah, that's true.
I don't know.
Also, would you have Tom Holland current day meet
Tobey Maguire Spider-Man and Andrew Garfield Spider-Man
in their prime, like at the time of Spider-Man 3?
I think it would be modern day.
Modern day.
Okay, right.
Move it along.
Look, I think if we if if we're gonna do like
into the i think people they'd probably want to do it like into the spider-verse so it'd be like
okay well toby mcguire spider-man now like what's he up to in 2019 yes thing yeah right because he's
like 43 now yeah right yeah so yeah but he looks like he could still be spider-man yeah he could
still do it and obviously the other guy could because he's also great hair
great hair
he's still got it
he could bring that
to a whole new
but you know
I'd imagine it'd be like
when all the Doctor Who's
team up
and they each
get their own skills
and then they all go
good job everybody
and they go back
to their universes
or whatever
and then have a lot of
discussion about why
Tobey Maguire
Spider-Man's the only one
with organic web shooters
that's a really good point
they'd have to bring that up
they really would
and
one of them would be like yeah I designed these web shooters. That's a really good point. They'd have to bring that up. They really would.
One of them would be like, yeah, I designed these web shooters.
Yeah, Tony Stark helped me build a new version of my web shooters.
What's going on here?
Why can you do that?
It's weird.
Don't look at it.
Don't look into the eye of it.
Don't look into the eye of my wrists.
It's a yucko. And I'd imagine Andrew Garfield would beg for one of the Gwen Stacy's to jump over
New Year's Universe.
Though one I think is like 15.
So not that one.
The Bryce Dallas Howard version.
Yeah, right.
What have you got, Mason?
This is an email from Rob Brodeur.
Okay.
The subject line says, if Marvel do a Bandersnatch style show, it should be She-Hulk.
And the body of the email says, yep.
Yeah.
Yeah.
I agree.
Because that's your that's your
breaking the fourth wall kind of character that's a that's a character who is aware that she is
a fictional character for the most part and everybody around her thinks she's insane yes
and that would also get around like a lot of people i think want it to be a daredevil
not daredevil deadpool yeah kind of and don't overuse deadpool no bringing a new bringing a
new character yeah why not yeah deadpool lives in a new character. Bring in She-Hulk.
Yeah, why not?
Yeah.
Deadpool lives in his own space.
He lives in his own space.
I like that a lot.
Yeah, right?
You get totally meta with it.
Yeah.
Yes.
And I guess because She-Hulk's the way you can get meta, but she's different from Dead
Hulk.
From Dead Hulk.
From the Dead Hulk.
Speaking of Dead Hulk, are you still enjoying Immortal Hulk?
I am not up to date.
Pretty good.
Yes.
Yeah, but it's good stuff. good. Yes. It's good stuff.
It is good.
A lot of people have picked that up on our recommendation, I believe.
Yeah, because she's Deadpool, but without the dick jokes, and she's a lawyer.
So it's a different thing.
It's true, yeah.
I mean, she could still do dick jokes.
I bet she could, yeah.
This is from the uneducated film geek loves swamp thing, brackets TV.
If you were to revive a cancelled movie or video game project,
what would it be?
Star Wars.
Obviously, I'll do Star Wars 10.
I'll do Star Wars 9.
I'll go straight into it.
It would just be the next month.
Yeah, wow.
Would it be finished in a month?
I don't care.
That's not my problem.
Whatever they have in a month.
You want a fresh new one.
What got cancelled before its time? Not even cancelled. You can just bring back something that's finished. Oh, yeah, that's true. Like, say you want a B new one. What got cancelled before its time?
Not even cancelled.
You can just bring back something that's finished.
Oh, yeah, that's true.
Like, say you want a Bugs Life 2.
Yeah.
Do you?
No, absolutely not.
Okay.
Ants 2.
Then yes, absolutely.
Ants versus Bugs Life.
Daughter of Justice.
Daughter of Justice.
Daughter of Pesticide.
Look at that.
That's the real villain.
It's Pesticide.
Okay. Something old, something new. Something borrowed, something blown. Dawn of Pesticide look at that that's the real villain it's Pesticide okay something old
something new
something borrowed
something blown
cancelled before it's time
would you bring back
Buffy
I mean that is coming back
maybe anyways
I probably wouldn't
bring back Buffy
Firefly
no
that's the thing
that people always say
they always say
bring back Firefly
bring it back
I think Firefly works
better because you can
imagine all the adventures
they went on
or read the comics read the comics that are the continuation of all the adventures they went on. Or read the comics.
Read the comics that are the continuation
of the adventures
that they went on.
Yeah.
Also, like,
three of them are dead
or whatever.
Yeah, right.
Uh-huh.
I don't know.
A bunch of stuff
always arrives on Netflix
and you look at it
and you go,
2015, one season.
Yeah.
There's a whole bunch
of stuff that it's like,
man, I would love to see
even one more season
of that.
Sure.
I can't think of anything
right now, though. Give me two minutes. I can think of one. What's that? For video games, I would bring loved to see even one more season of that. Sure. I can't think of anything right now, though.
Give me two minutes.
I can think of one.
What's that?
For video games, I would bring back Prince of Persia.
Is that not coming back?
Not at the moment.
What's the last one they did?
Because Assassin's Creed was originally supposed to be a spin-off of Prince of Persia, where
he plays an assassin in the Prince of Persia universe, but then ended up becoming its own
franchise.
Oh, I see.
Right.
And the last one they did came out at the same time as the movie,
but it was an in-between,
well, between The Sands of Time and Warrior Within.
Yeah, right, right, right.
And it was good.
I still enjoyed it because I like all those games.
So basically the mechanics of those games,
but I don't care if it's a reboot or whatever,
because they did reboot it as well.
It was cel-shaded and they changed the prints and whatever.
I did not enjoy the combat mechanics.
I didn't like it.
But anyway, I love Prince of Persia.
I love the sense of time.
Trilogy.
Yes.
Sorry, quadrilogy because there is a fourth one technically.
And I would love to see it return.
I love it.
Yeah.
I can't think of a gosh darn thing.
Maybe we can come back to this next week.
If anybody has any suggestions, let us know for next week, because I would love to hear about that.
If you've got a suggestion, yes or no.
Do you have a suggestion?
We want specifics, though.
I would like to bring back Charlie Brooker's
End of Year Wipe that he doesn't do anymore.
Yeah, that's right. He's too big for that now.
Yeah, I think he's too good. He's on Netflix.
He's making Netflix shows. He's making Netflix.
He thinks it's better than us. Better than the BBC.
Wow. No one's better than the BBC.
No one's better than Aunty Beeb or whatever it's called.
Whatever that thing's called.
Whatever that thing is called.
It's got to be something, but I can't think of a bloody thing.
I could do another letter if you want.
Yeah, do another letter.
Bruce Lanning says,
There's a lot of talk about Keanu Reeves playing a Marvel character.
Who could he play?
Did you see that this week?
Kevin Feige said they approach him like every time.
Yeah, exactly.
Do you want to do anything in this movie?
Not really?
Okay then, cool.
Would it be weird to see him?
I don't think so.
No.
Because you can bring in famous people.
Yeah.
I don't think you can.
But he's kind of distractingly famous though now, isn't he?
Yes, and maybe not a lead role.
Yeah.
I was thinking, how about this?
This would work for him.
Powerful, aloof, bald, Silver Surfer.
Okay.
Yeah, I like that.
That's pretty good.
I like that a lot.
Yeah.
Because he did aloof and alien in, there's a big robot coming to Earth and it's going
to kill everybody.
The Day the Earth Stood Still.
Yeah.
That's true, yeah.
You saw that one, didn't you?
Yeah.
And it's also Keanu Reeves a little bit against type
because normally he's like, whoa.
But now he'd be like, I've seen it all
because I'm cosmic, cosmic powers.
But I'll give you one.
Whoa.
Whoa.
Yeah.
Or maybe he'd be like,
I've got unbelievable cosmic powers
and I can do anything.
And they're like, but do you believe in love?
And he'd be like, whoa.
Or he's like, yeah.
Out of family. Oh, yeah. Had a family.
Oh, yeah.
That's right.
Had a love of my life.
And they erased his memory.
Did they?
Yeah, that's how these ways...
Okay.
That's why the way is...
I thought...
He got it back.
Yeah.
Of course he did.
Yeah.
What about Mr. Fantastic?
I don't like that at all.
Okay.
Yeah.
Remember there was rumours he was going to be Plastic Man in the Wachowskis?
Yeah, yeah, yeah. Plastic Man. And I guess you could throw him in as the Eternals as one of all. Okay. Remember there was rumours he was going to be Plastic Man in the Wachowskis? Yeah, yeah, yeah.
Plastic Man.
And I guess you could
throw him in as the Eternals
as one of them.
But any of them.
Hannibal.
I would have liked to see
another season of Hannibal.
Oh yeah.
Because at the end
spoiler alert for Hannibal
skip ahead 20 seconds
Hannibal falls off a cliff
with the main cop
doesn't he?
Yeah.
After killing the red dragon
in an axe fight.
And we know
the way it's going to go.
It's essentially going to be the Silence of the Lambs and et cetera, et cetera.
But I would have liked to see it with those characters.
That would be nice.
But that's amazing that that series even existed because it was really horrific and it was on a network in America.
Good food prep in it.
It's like the chef of eating people.
Yeah, that's right.
Any other questions or do you want to skip ahead like the chef of eating people yeah that's right yeah any other questions
or do you want to skip that let's have one more to the end of the show uh this is ross ross lawhead
hi chaps that's us what length of comic story do you generally enjoy reading most single issue
six issue arc 12 issue maxi series 52 issue epic doesn't matter yeah whatever's good i do kind of
like the 52 not 52 like you know like the the one shots that are
a little bit longer they're like 40 50 pages yeah right they tell like a self-contained thing
yeah and there's no like you know there's that's not like and next week yeah right i i
think they're okay but i mean when they're good yeah i mean but that's i feel like there's just
as a as a
just as a sit down
and read something
I feel that's not enough
okay
that's not enough reading
for me
sure so you want a graphic novel
I want a
I reckon a 12 issue series
okay
I think I've gotten used to
your Mr Miracles
your The Vision
you want them all at once though
you don't want to
read them week to week
or month to month
I think I would rather
read them all in one go
yeah fair enough
or maybe like two sittings
or whatever
sure
but that's that's a good sold length I think I would rather read them all in one go. Yeah, fair enough. Or maybe like two sittings or whatever. Sure. But that's a good sold length.
I think because for a long time it was like,
it just goes on forever.
The series just never ends.
Yeah.
And then they were like,
then like I guess the big two were like,
if we compact everything into six issues,
we can sell them as trades.
Yes.
And again, that's not enough.
And story arcs sell better when it's like,
and it's this saga, and now it's this saga.
I reckon 12's a good solid length.
Sometimes I look at like-
Watchmen is kind of the classic.
Yeah, right.
Is that 12?
That's 12.
I knew that because it's an anime.
So-
Oh, no.
You have crossed the line.
Who's going to be more mad at you,
anime fans or Alan Moore fans?
Let's find out.
Let's find out.
Are you more mad at him or not?
Yes or no?
Alan Moore fans, anime fans, yes or no?
So what was I going to say?
Sometimes I look at like a comic run.
Like I'm really behind on Saga.
I'm like 50, maybe 100 behind.
And I'm like, oh, that's a lot, isn't it?
Yeah, it really is, yeah.
Yeah, and also I'm not like sometimes when I'm like oh it's a lot isn't it yeah it really is yeah yeah and also i'm not
like sometimes when i'm in the middle of a series and then i'm also far behind because then i'm like
do i start again yeah exactly yeah yeah and sometimes when you want to recommend something
to people i think it's also really good to be like you can if you can literally hand it to them and
go this read this exactly not like you should read saga where should i start the first one
it looks like there's 12 volumes out and you're like well you should read Saga. Where should I start? The first one.
It looks like there's 12 volumes out.
And you're like, well, you have to read all of them.
Yeah.
It's kind of like... And why haven't you?
You'll definitely be hooked.
But maybe you won't be hooked and I've wasted your time.
Yeah.
So, you know.
Yeah.
Is that the show, though?
I think that's the whole show.
Great.
Thanks, everybody, for listening.

for their idiocy.
I love it.
It's really good.
You're holding a memory card in your hand.
Yeah.
Is it the memory card that you've taken out of the phone?
It's a different memory card.
That's a relief.

The subject heading is A Thing.
This is an iTunes review. You can just do it on your phone as well
apparently now. A great podcast
where you get good information in a
hilarious way. Notice I didn't say great and I appreciate
that. Love the tangents
they get stuck in. It is really what makes
the podcast. We don't mean to get stuck in
so many tangents. I often try to get out
of them. Do you? Sometimes. I often try to get out of them.
Do you?
Sometimes.
That's good information for me to know.
You don't want to be in tangents. You don't like being in tangents, hey?
You don't want to be in a tangent for too long.
That reminds me of a little friend of mine.
Yeah?
A simple carpenter's son.
Darren, your mate Darren.
Yeah, it's my mate Darren.
Yeah, okay.
Cool. I was going to say you. My dad's my mate Darren Yeah, okay, yeah Yeah, yeah Cool

He's also, he's not a carpenter anymore
Yeah, he was
He was, many years ago
Yeah, yeah
Yeah

You will, because I'm not looking into it.
No, it's exactly right.
Yes, exactly.
I think people would like them.
Yeah, absolutely.
We're talking about conservation.
Yeah.
And if not, we could sell them.
If we can't sell them on the day, we could sell them.
On the way to hell.
No, the website.
Which is where we're going.
In a cart?
Yeah.
We're in a cart selling Keep Cups on the way to hell.

I've lost our place.
What are we doing?
I don't know where we were.
Thank you to the Brutal Basilisk and Rackham for all our musical themes.

Mysterio
very good
thank you
thank you
alright thanks for
listening everybody
grab that gem you guys
we'll see you next week
goodbye
bye
it's a bit shorter
than normal
but like
there'd be like an ad
which would make it
a little bit longer
which would make it
about the regular length
do we count ads
as content
well it counts
to the overall time I guess it does so people write in and they're like oh it's a little bit longer, which would make it about the regular length. Do we count ads as content? Well, it counts to the overall time.
I guess it does.
So people write in and they're like, oh, it's a little bit shorter this week.
We didn't do an ad.
That's why.
I mean, we did do an ad.
We did a live shot.
Forget it.
Let's just.
Should we do an ad just for all time?
Just for funsies.
Fine.
Let's do it.
People do that on Instagram.
They do like fake sponsored posts to make them seem like they're more important as content
creators.
Pretty cool.
Yeah, it's very cool.
It's very cool.
Anyway, Mack Weldon, Movement Watchers, Casper Mattresses.
Whatever you want.
Hello Fresh.
Hello Fresh.
